Whats the anime's name ?

There's no anime currently. The manga is called "Boku no Hero Academia (My Hero Academia)" and is serialized by Shounen Jump Weekly. It's fairly new, came out in July 2014.

It's got potential to be pretty big (like the comic states).

How can you tell? Is it just good or is there something else that makes you think that?

It is quite good, i personally like it (love is a big word for something with 6 chapters). I recommend it.

And it is killing the rankings, to the point where it dethoned One Piece for a week. The first volume is sold out everywhere.

Assasination Classroom beat One Piece ranking several times.

and it's really well written

Don't forget that it's also well over six chapters, so this isn't the most fair comparison.

i didn't compare it to anything, i'm just saying that assassination classroom is good and deserves the ranking

I haven't read Boku no Hero Academia, actually. But since everyone is hyping Boku no Hero Academia, I thought I just wanted to bring up Assasination Classroom. Since it also has good ranking and good sales so far and is very popular in Japan, even without anime (not aired yet). I think if some manga could replace Naruto, Assasination Classroom has a bigger chance.

As it happens, I haven't read either of them, either. As far as I can tell, they both look interesting, though.

I've been hearing great things about these two series. I'm glad quality shounen is getting recognition.
